Thank you. This looks as it could be the same family. If I could find a GRO ref for Rosina Gladys's birth then I could send for it and confirm it is the right family. It cant be the same one as Mike found as he then found a death when she was only 4. If anyone can find me another one I would much appreciate it.

Thanks again

As I said all I need now to find is the ref for Rosina Gladys Davies birth and I can send for the birth certificate.

d'you think that's Arthur I posted - they appear to have been a rich family - servants etc?

I cannot find Rosina at all

Anne

Anne Report 5 Mar 2013 11:27

It certainly looks like it. If only we can find Rosina's birth I could send for the birth certificate and confirm it.

Anne

Anne Report 5 Mar 2013 11:30

I have found one on GR but cant access it at the moment as no credits. I am now wondering though if this is the same one anyway or if its the one Mike found and then found a death for.

Anne

Anne Report 5 Mar 2013 11:37

The birth and death that Mike found dont look the same as the birth that Ginns found. So think I'll send for the one that Ginns found and hopefully it is the right one.

Thank you one and all

The family think Rosina's father was a Mayor of Milford Haven and was a butcher. Tried finding a list of mayors to confirm his christian name but don't seem to be able to find one on google.

Can anyone help

I don't know why you couldn't have found the birth yourself......it's on freebmd!

Please don't rely too much on what family members 'think'

Thank you Chris

It looks like the 1st marriage is the one I am looking for.

Anne Report 16 Mar 2013 18:47

I have just received the birth certificate for Rosina G Davies. This is the one found for Rosina G Davies in 1887 in Haverfordwest but it is giving her parents names as different ones to the one I have. Can anyone please look up her marriage which was to Frederick Garton in 1907 in Haverfordwest and tell me who that says her father is?

Thanks

K Report 16 Mar 2013 19:25

Sorry I can't find the marriage of Rosina and Frederick on FMP in 1907. Who does the cert list as her parents?

Anne

Anne Report 17 Mar 2013 11:41

It is in the bmd records on genes reunited as in the April quarter of 1907. Tho it doesnt say who her parents are.

K Report 17 Mar 2013 13:38

Sorry - I meant parents listed in the birth cert for Rosina
